I was originally planning to just have my stock L98 heads ported, but I came acrossed these heads on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

What do you guys think, would this be a better deal than porting my stock L98 heads? (It's about the same amount of money, less if I can sell my stock L98 heads)

 

The only thing I don't like about those heads are the large combustion chamber, other than that I can't offer any good advice.

Just an FYI, you can get the Dart aluminum heads for less than that on ebay (~$1100 after shipping ect.), and your original D-ports will sell for around $300-$350 on ebay. I just did this with my build, only I bought a set of Brodix heads used from a forum member, but was about to pull the trigger on the Darts.

 

Here is more info I believe on these heads (#1038):
